Pop'n music AC General Info: Difference between revisions

Each pop'n music release has its own version of the song select screen. From [[AC pnm 10|pop'n music 10]] to [[AC pnm 20|pop'n music 20 fantasia]], the song select screen looked similar across diffrent versions. In these later versions, songs are scrolled vertically with the blue buttons, and versions or sorts are scrolled horizontally with the green buttons. There will usually be a section that sorts all songs by level, and another alphabetically (by genre, of course). Earlier mixes, like [[AC pnm 8|pop'n music 8]] do not have such luxuries.

To change difficulty, press both yellow buttons simultaneously. This will cycle you up from NORMAL to HYPER, and on to EX if available. In 5 key mode, you will only cycle from 5 to 9 key, then back to 5.

In pop'n music Sunny Park, the song select screen is divided in folders on the song wheel, similar to the beatmania IIDX series. Opening folders are done using the red button, and closing folders are done using the left green button. All difficulty levels and ratings are displayed under the banner, and difficulty selection changed to using the yellow buttons to highlight the difficulty. Difficulty selection is still done this way in current versions of pop'n music.

As of [[AC pnm Lapistoria|ラピストリア]], sorting options are placed in a separate menu, which is brought up using either green button. From that menu, songs can be sorted by level, song title, artist name, version, and BEMANI series. As of [[AC pnm Usaneko|うさぎと猫と少年の夢]], if sorting by level, levels can be adjusted to a higher or lower level using the yellow buttons. Scrolling on the song wheel and difficulty switching is done in the same manner as in Sunny Park.
